Amazon.com Review
NBA Street is the best arcade basketball title available. Period. Why? No refs, no clocks, no fouls. Players will knock you over, and they practically live for blatant goaltending throughout the game. Realistic? No, but it's always fun--even if you hate basketball. Street has two different game modes--City Circuit and Hold the Court--yet the differences here are minimal. Both feature three-on-three games of 21, in which you must assemble a squad composed of (initially) NBA players. Soon you'll play against street legends (read: bosses) that, once defeated, can be added to your team. Your ultimate goal is to defeat the biggest legend ever: Michael Jordan. To survive the streets, you must learn which buttons to mash as you master specific stunts. This will add special points to your score and give you access to different ways to score. Though similar to NBA Jam and its sequels, Street is deeper, and sports a surprisingly developed finesse game. Street does commit some fouls, though, with its over-the-top, repetitive commentary and lack of play modes. However, even if you hate arcade-style basketball, you'll find Street differs from the pack, making it a solid MVP contender. Pros: - Good controls and gameplay
- Pleasantly cartoonish graphics
- Arcade approach makes it fun for those turned off by very technical basketball simulations
Cons: - Horrific commentary
- Only 2 very similar gameplay modes
- No 4-player support
Amazon.com Product Description
Taking the ball out of the hands of shoe salesman and giving it to characters based on schoolyard greats, NBA Street also plays by street rules. Off-the-backboard passes, nasty dunks, and a special momentum meter--which boosts your abilities as you humiliate the competition--let you know you're not playing arena ball. In fact, some of the courts are modeled after real-life basketball training grounds, such as New York's Rucker Park and the Cage. You'll see them all when you hit the road and take on the local crew. Perform well against them and you'll be able to recruit some special talent (did we say Mike?) to your team. Hold the Court mode will reward you with cool accessories, such as shoes and tattoos, by successfully defending the home court against challenging teams.

This game was the bomb, back in the day, y'all! It truly rocked! I loved this game, and my 3 year old son, loved it too! It truly was our favorite game. Now my son is five, and playing lots of House of the Dead 2, on Dreamcast, but I still love playing this on my X Box and PSP. But the original, on PS2, will always have a special place in my heart.

NBA Street is an awesome game, Joe "The Show" Jackson is the announcer in all games. You get to play in Pacific Boulevard in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, South Beach in Miami, Florida, Route 66 in Phoenix, Arizona, Beacon Hill in Boston, Massachuttsets (if you beat Biggs (Lewis Barker) in the circuit), Broad Street in Philadelphia, Pennslyvania (if you beat Bonafide (Carlito Vargas) in the circuit), The Loop in Chicago, Illinois, Fort Point in San Fransisco, California, Yakatomi Plaza in Los Angleles, California (if you beat Takashi Sato in the circuit), Rucker Park (if you beat Stretch or MJ in the circuit) and The Cage in New York City, The Yard in Detroit, Michigan (if you beat Drake Evans in the circuit), and Venice Beach in California (if you beat Donovan Jones in the circuit)!
